Starting an independent pentecostal church
 

Thoughts? Warnings? Encouragement? Great stories? Fellowship? Dealing with keeping/losing existing friends, and intentional isolation from previous group backslash?

I have always felt who are my real friends will be my friends if I carry a card or not....

Do it, because why not!? :lol

You will lose maybe all of your church friends. I’m sorry, I mean “friends.”

I’m assuming you’re a married male with children, correct? Bro, protect your family. The people that loved on you for x amount of years will put down the love and pick up pitchforks and torches.

Why are you starting an independent Pentecostal Church?

Re: Starting an independent pentecostal church
 

I have the same question.

Re: Starting an independent pentecostal church
 

If you happen to still be reading this forum. Follow what the Lord Jesus Christ has set for you. Psalm 127:1 Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.

Anyone you lose as a "friend" was NEVER your brother in Jesus name.
So, keep in mind that leaving an organization (or fellowship) is a good way to weed out the wicked and expose those who were just glad handers. Brothers are brothers who are supposed to hold fast. I don't mean agree with everything you might do or say. Yet, they will stick with you and be available if you need them :thumbsup
